Well, my daughter did really well sleeping in her bed for a while. The past couple of weeks here she has decided, however, that she doesn’t want to sleep in her bed, she wants to sleep in her crib.

In fact, she has learned to climb INTO her crib. Most kids climb out of it, but [...]

I finally gave my 2 year old her first happy meal yesterday. Now, we don’t eat a lot of fast food. In fact, it’s a rare occasion when it happens. And I’m fine with that. I think it’s ok to have every now and then, but really, I try to avoid it.
Well, yesterday I was [...]

Everywhere I go I see Halloween costumes. I had to run to the fabric store a few times recently and the cutting tables were a madhouse. You had to grab a number when you first got there, and then go do your shopping and still wait in line for 15 minutes to wait for your [...]

I wasn’t sure if I was going to update my blog today, but I decided I had to share my good news with everyone. Do you remember when I was begging for comments to win an Electrolux washer and dryer from Mom Central? And how I won the set? (Yay!)

They are coming up today and wanted to know if they can stay with us.

“Of course,” I told her.

Now usually when my parents come into town they stay with my mom’s parents or other family. We live a little out of the way and in a [...]

The other day I took my daughter to the park across the street because she wanted to swing.

As I pushed her I saw her child like glee as she flew through the air laughing and giggling. Her red curls blew awry in the wind caused by the swinging motion and she was genuinely happy. I [...]

Oh where, oh where could they be?
I’ve searched all my couches, the rooms, and my bags,
Oh where, oh where could they be?

Yes, that is right. My keys have decided to disappear on me. I had them Friday when I went to check the mail. Then I came inside, and haven’t seen them since. My husband [...]

Last night we tried to have my daughter sleep on a twin mattress on the floor instead of her crib. We got her new sheets and everything.

Well, we put her down and she played for a little while, which we expected, but when I went up later I realized the light was on. She is [...]

That day has finally come where we have decided to move our daughter out of her crib. We decided to just bring up one of our extra mattresses we store in the basement and put it on her floor. That way when she falls off it’s not a big fall. Our current crib was supposed [...]
